Increased security comes after string of people attacked, injured on the TTC<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a recent surge of violent incidents on the TTC,\u00a0police are increasing the\u00a0daily presence<\/q>\u00a0of officers within the city’s transit system effective Thursday, Police Chief\u00a0Myron Demkiw\u00a0said<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upwards of 80 police officers will be in place throughout the\u00a0transit system every day, he said, in an effort to\u00a0enhance public safety and prevent\u00a0crimes of opportunity<\/q>\u00a0he said<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our officers will be on, in and around our transit system across the city<\/q><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demkiw appeared at a news conference Thursday alongside\u00a0Mayor John Tory and\u00a0TTC CEO Rick Leary, among others, to respond\u00a0to an increase in attacks on streetcars, buses and on the subway<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demkiw\u00a0said the officers who will be patrolling the TTC will be doing so on an\u00a0overtime capacity, as to not compromise efforts to improve response times for police calls across the city<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s unclear how much this plan will cost, but\u00a0Demkiw said police will monitor the situation\u00a0day-to-day, week-to-week<\/q>\u00a0to see what costs will be, and are\u00a0prepared to scale as required<\/q><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leary said the TTC will also be adding more special constables and uniform employees to the system, as well as adding to and improving security camera systems<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These individuals are there to help individuals<\/q>\u00a0Leary\u00a0said<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Incidents of violence<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A 16-year-old boy\u00a0who was seriously injured in a stabbing on a TTC bus\u00a0(new window)<\/a>\u00a0Wednesday marked the fourth case of violence in five days on the city’s transit system\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In those five days, police reported separate incidents involving harassment and assault against TTC employees, and a resident stabbed several times while on a streetcar<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier in the day, a person was arrested after allegedly chasing two TTC workers with a syringe<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In response to the violence,\u00a0Tory called for a summit<\/a>\u00a0that would see mayors, ministers, premiers and the prime minister discuss how better to support people living with mental health and addictions challenges<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tory said Thursday he understands some passengers are anxious and scared, and officials are doing what they can to make sure transit riders and employees alike are safe<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The TTC must be safe for everyone, without exception<\/q>\u00a0he said<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ATTACKS ON TORONTO TRANSIT USERS, STAFF PROMPTS CALLS FOR TASK FORCE<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

18 hours agoDuration2:24The union representing transit workers across Canada is calling for a safety task force following a series of violent attacks on Toronto transit users and staff. But the problem is not limited to Toronto<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mayor also said the city needs funding help from other levels of government both for additional police officers and special constables, and for investments in social services and mental health<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toronto police say that in light of the recent incidents, officers have been encouraged to engage with passengers and TTC operators when they are on duty and provide a visible policing presence on transit<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘We are at a breaking point’: union local president<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cities outside Toronto are also witnessing an increase of violence on their transit networks. The Amalgamated Transit Union Canada, representing 35,000 transit workers, called for a\u00a0national task force<\/a>\u00a0to tackle violence against workers and riders on public transit systems across the country<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ATU Local 113, the union local that\u00a0represents 12,000 transit workers across Toronto, sent\u00a0a letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau Thursday, asking for\u00a0federal assistance and resources be allocated to the issues of mental health and homelessness<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are at a breaking point. We’re in a situation where we have members saying they are in fear<\/q>\u00a0said\u00a0Marvin Alfred, Local 113 president<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have Torontonians saying they are looking at options other than the TTC, which increases costs and emissions, versus taking public transit because they are too scared<\/q><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The TTC’s latest CEO report from earlier this month shows reports of violence against customers spiked in early 2020 and has ebbed and flowed since then \u2014\u00a0but has not dropped back down to pre-pandemic levels<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report also shows offences against employees have risen since 2017, peaking in the spring of last year<\/p>\n\n\n\n
